Thanks for the feedback, I'll do that! I think different screens and system settings affect this a lot, on all the devices I've looked at the site on I felt it was quite comfortable to read, not to discount your experience, I'll keep that in mind for the future as well.
People want to build something with the newfound productivity, but it turns out that software development always had a high leverage against potential impact - coding was always relatively cheap. That means there is in fact no backlog of great products that could have been built if we only had 10x productivity. The only spots where "missing products" can be found are mostly around AI itself.
IMHO the reason is because engineers can write software but not always solve real problems. It is just easier to put stuff in code to do things with computers. This is the comfort zone. But coming up with something that solves a valuable end-user problem requires understanding what this is.
I've been through this thought process many times and I am still struggling (you can check my profile as to why).
i think there is a real gap though. autonomous agent are actually very useful and powerful but has huge potential for great damage. proper harnesses are indeed needed to either contain potential damage like sandbox or provide interface for human to actually supervise and intervene.
I wish we all collectively worked on one project, especially on an orchestrator tool, where the groundwork is important. people can build on it whatever they want, just dont re-invent the orchestrator!
I can see you're A/B testing some different hero text.
I got:
> Write a config, not a conversation
Which I found let me wondering - "What is this thing?"
I refreshed a few times to the variations, and while some were better, I feel like your hero could do with being less pithy, and more plain explanation of what it is.
So I'm the creator of botctl which I created to satisfy my personal need for running many agents on a cron style loop. The whole premise is you don't need to be there to chat with the agent for it to do it's job.
I'm definitely not A/B testing anything, it just cycles through a couple titles I thought conveyed the project well. The sub-title directly under it explains it pretty clearly, would you agree with that?
> Manage persistent AI bots with a terminal dashboard, web UI, and declarative configuration.
There's also an interactive emulation of the TUI directly next to both titles in the hero.

You can try as well.
What are the best applications for AI automation?
